The latest edition of The Run To The Finals is here as journos Billy Jupp and Ben Jaffrey sit down together to discuss the latest round of the AFL North West competition.
Neither of the boys had a run on the weekend but there was still plenty to talk about as the competition really heats up with two rounds remaining.
PREVIOUS PODCASTS:
The top three teams – Inverell, Gunnedah and New England – have all locked down their finals spot but there is a three-way battle for the fourth and final top four spot.
Narrabri romped back into contention with their win over the fourth-placed Tamworth Swans while the Tamworth Kangaroos are also in the hunt despite their loss to New England.
We’d also love to see your photos, too. If you have any you’d like included in future editions of The Run To The Finals, you can send them to ben.jaffrey@fairfaxmedia.com.au or billy.jupp@fairfaxmedia.com.au.
